    I get annoyed at my brain when....shaving above the sink I feel still it necessary to spit every now and again as if I'm brushing my teeth.

    I even notice it when I do it but can't stop it.

    This is only going to be relevant to a few people but for those who do martial arts where you have to bow to get in and out of the room, when you go to some kind of master class and have to do it all day long and then for a few days after you end up bowing as you go into shops... absolutely mortifyingly annoying.

    A bloke beside me in the gym today - turned on the tap for five minutes for a shave , then 3 mins brushing teeth - then walked away and left tap on.
    Blokes like him need a water charge.

    Technologically impaired country. They should use those push-button taps (like a lot of showers) that only stay on for 10-15 seconds.

    Still, I'd like to think there's a special place in hell for wasters like that.:mad:

    The sudden rash of jaywakers brought on by the unseasonable warm weather. I swear they wait in the bushes until the light turns green and saunter across slowly just on time.

    Almost as good as the people you wave across and then they deliberately go as slowly as possible.

    People who leave the door wide open when the heat is on and it's freezing outside. The big massive security tags that are on clothes footwear etc. that prevent you from comfortably trying on an item prior to purchasing it.
    Drawers that are so over-packed that they're wedged shut or items within the drawer fall down behind the back of the dresser.
    Agree on all counts.... Especially the door open when heat on wtf?

    FF is the most popular party again. Are people stupid?

    FF is the most popular party again. Are people stupid?

    I've learned that generally the answer to that question is yes.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,039 ✭✭✭MJ23


    People who can't close a door
    People being fake
    Bad drivers
    People who shouldn't have kids
    People who wait til they're at the bank machine to go rooting around in their pockets, bags etc to find their card.
    Bag packers in supermarkets, i will avoid you at all costs.
    When in a queue and the person behind you is too close, step back and stop breathing on my neck
    Food mawlers, you can look without touching, with your dirty farmers hands
    People not knowing the difference between their they're and there, your and you're.
    Text speak
    People obsessed with the weather, yes its cold, put on a coat, or move to Spain.
    People who get upset with the word 'foreigners', why can't we say it. Non nationals is stupid, it's just like calling an amateur golfer a 'non professional'.

    Slow cars in the fast lane that won't move over

    Fair play to you !!!!

    Even at the speed limit of 120 on the N4 I feel bullied into the inside lane at times.... i'm going maximum speed... sometimes breaking the limit slightly as it is!! Idiots!!!!

    The problem is how do you know that you are doing 120kph. Just because your speedo says 120 doesn't make it a fact.

    If you have a sat nav compare the speed that it says you are doing against what the speedo says.

    In my case I'm actually doing 110 on the sat nav when the speedo says 120.

    I read somewhere that manufacturers are allowed sell cars with speedos that overstate the speed you are doing but under no circumstances can they sell you one that understates your speed.

    people who allow their dogs to crap all over the footpath, then stroll off without a second thought for the man following with a buggy, who doesn't see the mess, and trods straight into it and through it....

    Jamie Heaslip wearing his earphones at the coin toss before the rugby match

    for some reason this annoyed me, just felt it lacked a bit of class

    > When your walking down the street directly behind someone and all of a sudden they just stop without warning and you end up nearly walking in to them.

    > the word "guys"

    > when your in a car park and notice a person going to their spot to leave the car park, this person has seen me and knows I am waiting to park in their spot, yet it fookin takes them 5 fookin minutes to get in their car and leave.

    > small changing rooms

    > people in the gym who can't put the bloody weights back in the correct section.

    > people in cars taking slow left turns

    > women that are in a queue for the shop for up to 5 mins. They know the feckin process and that they will have to do the usual i.e. pay ! When it comes to paying time, it comes as a total shock to them. And they then open their big handbag and start rootin around for another 2 mins looking for their wallet. Does my head in. This should all be pre done whilst waiting in the queue

    > wine being poured

    Oh god I hate knockoff uggs when you can see they're all deformed after a day's wear!!!

    Children in poor footwear bothers me too, those little legs need support!

    Just today I realised that Rugby annoys the sh1t outa me. Maybe it's not trivial, though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    wine being poured

    Does it annoy you once it's been poured or is it just the act of pouring that annoys you?

    I find this one great. It's the most trivial thing on the thread so far I think!

    + one

    The media obsession with Rugby annoys me and then today I gave in and watched the game :(

    Good news is that is was so boring, stop start etc that I won't bother again. And the stamping by Cian Healy gave me something to use for arguments in the future ;)

    Back to GAA and Soccer it is:D;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 29,089 ✭✭✭✭LizT


    Today's match wasn't exactly a great advertisement for rugby in fairness!

    It's usually infinitely more entertaining than soccer.

    Goes for football matches and political marches and everything inbetween

    I watched the whole game! The first time in years, I think. Such a boring, tedious game. Fcuking football season is over. /rage

    I suppose the indoor season has begun. #small mercies.
